Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Yu Wan smiled and rested peacefully with the little fatties in her arms.
Helian Qi��s matter might have caused a huge storm in the royal court, but Yu Wan��s heart was calm. She already knew that Helian Qi was the bastard who had almost taken advantage of Bai Tang. This kind of bastard deserved to die. What did it matter if he was punished by others or by the heavens? Retribution had come.
After the marriage between the two countries was completed, the Second Prince of Xiongnu had completed his mission. There was no reason for him to continue staying in the Great Zhou. Moreover, he was also homesick. Early in the morning, he proposed to the Emperor to bid farewell. The Emperor repeatedly asked him to stay, but the Second Prince of Xiongnu had already made up his mind.
The Emperor personally sent off the Xiongnu envoy. The royal family and ministers also went. Among the women, only Princess Consort Cheng was allowed to send her cousin off with her special status.
Ever since she found out that she was forced to marry a prince of the Great Zhou, Princess Consort Cheng had quarreled with her cousin a lot. She had hated her cousin, but when it came to the moment of separation, she could not bear separate from her cousin.
Her mind was filled with her cousin��s kindness. She recalled the first time she rode a horse when she was seven years old. She rode quickly to shake off all the slaves. In the end, she got lost on the grassland. Her cousin was the first to find her. He hugged her and said to her, ��Mingzhu, don��t be afraid. I��m here.��
From now on, her brother would not be here anymorea�|
��Wahhh��-��
Princess Consort Cheng ignored her image and cried in the arms of the Second Prince.
She was already married, so she needed to avoid suspicion, even if the other party was her biological brother. Everyone shook their heads and looked at Prince Cheng with pity. Prince Cheng only smiled embarrassedly.
The second prince of Xiongnu was about to part with his beloved sister and was already heartbroken. He naturally couldn��t care less about what others thought. He raised his hand to wipe her tears and choked as he said, ��I have wronged you, Xiongnu has wronged you.��
Princess Consort Cheng cried even harder.
The Second Prince of Xiongnu had always known that his sister wanted to marry the eagle of the grassland, a hero on the battlefield like Yu Shaoqing and Xiao Zhenting. She definitely did not want to marry a powerless pretty boy like Prince Cheng, but they had no choice.
This marriage was the Xiongnu��s surrender and also the Great Zhou��s grace. Who his sister married was up to the Emperor of the Great Zhou. It was not their turn to be picky.
However, on the bright side, she could only marry the princely heir. Thanks to Yan Jiuchao, the marriage candidate had at least improved by a level. Even if Prince Cheng did not have any real power, there was no risk at the same time. He did not ask for anything else but for his sister to live the rest of her life peacefully in the Great Zhou.
On the last day of May, the Xiongnu envoy embarked on their journey back to the country. Nanzhao��s envoys stayed behind with the excuse of treating Helian Qi��s injuries. Helian Qi was so injured that it was indeed not easy to move. The Emperor did not suspect anything and sent the imperial physician to take care of him every day.
On the first day of June, the Emperor issued an imperial edict in the court, conferring titles to all the adult princesa���the Eldest Prince was Prince Qing, the Second Prince Yan Huaijing was Prince Jing, the Third Prince was Prince Wu, and the Fourth Prince was Prince Zhao.
Yan Jiuchao had been conferred the title of Princely Heir. Since he was willing to accept the position of the Princely Heir, he was probably not far from inheriting his father��s position.
After Prince Yan��s funeral, the Emperor had the intention of letting Yan Jiuchao inherit the position. However, this kid refused no matter what. Not only did he not accept the position, but he also refused to take the position of the heir. Now, he had finally thought it through.
Yu Wan was very happy that Yan Jiuchao had become the heir apparent, but that was not the only thing she was happy about. Yu Song��s exam results were out, and he was ranked sixth in Class B.
This result made Yu Wan overjoyed. Her second brother had only been in school for less than a month, but he had actually gotten sixth place in the class. Although her second brother��s class was the lowest class in the Directorate, it was not bad to be able to get this result. Among the thirty-three students, her second brother had the worst foundation. She originally thought that it was fine to be at the bottom, but who knew that he would rush into the top ten.
The news was brought by Jiang Xiaowu. After they exiled Su Mu, Yan Jiuchao transferred Uncle Wan back to Yan City. On the surface, he asked Uncle Wan to go back and take care of the Yan Manor, but anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was punishing Uncle Wan regarding Su Mu��s matter.
Jiang Xiaowu asked about Yu Song��s results and also asked about Zhao Heng. Zhao Heng was a student of the A class of Chengxin Hall. This was the best class in the second grade. If nothing went wrong, he would have gotten the best results.
Zhao Heng was talented and diligent. Moreover, he had been studying for many years and had already passed the county-level examination. Yu Wan did not want to compare her second brother to him. In short, she believed that her second brother was promising.
Yu Wan could not wait to tell her family the news, but she remembered that Yan Jiuchao had also asked about Yu Song��s results, so she personally made a snack and asked Jiang Xiaowu to send it to the cabinet. At the same time, she told Yan Jiuchao about her second brother and her arrangements.
